Confidently type in name of 1982 Golden Boot. Correct. 1/14

Confidently type in name of 1990 Golden Boot. Computer Says No.

Confidently type in name of 1990 Golden Boot again. Computer Says No again.

Think really hard about the spelling. Confidently type in name of 1990 Golden Boot again. Computer Says No again.

Get cross.

Swear.

Press 'Give up' button.

Press 'Show answers' button.

And fuck me if it hasn't rejected my answer because I failed to give his full name. I mean, when Dele gets the Golden Boot this year, will the BBC give you a wrong answer if you fail to call him Bamidele? FFS.

Anyway, thanks for bringing that quiz to my attention, A&C. I got "fuck off, you fucking piece of shit quiz" out of 14 and I'm off to take some deep breaths... :shifty:

12/14. I didn't get 1974 and, more embarrassingly, 2014.

1974 I would never, ever have known. I haven't even heard of the guy.

I knew most of the older ones but very few post 1990. Couple of good guesses but otherwise, no idea.

I was amazed how many obscure answers there are, particularly in the last 6 or 7 World Cups.

That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

How the fuck people remember stuff like this i don't know. Kudos to them but the only thing i remeber from the last world cup is iceland beating us and someone saying germany won it. Before that was gazzas tears.

You really do have poor memory. Iceland was Euro 2016, not the World Cup. :p

I used be able to remember these but found myself struggling to remember KLose, the closest I could get was knowing he was an old german striker who barely scored a club goal.

Oleg Salenko brings back memories too, 5 goals in one game. I'm sure we wre linked to him at some point around then.

You only need to type the surname now. Maybe you should give it another go.

9, I knew the russian, but couldn't remember how it was spelled. And got lucky that two share surname.
